tribute to his worth and abilities and
an honor in which we feel that the race

TORY TACTICS.

If anything was required to illus
trate the disgusting methods the Tories
will adopt in order to accomplish the
desired end we believe the removal OF
Mr.. Byrne, a magistrate Of Mallow.
from Office would do so. MI. Byrne
was removed by order Of Baron Ash
bourne, the Lord Chancellor Of Ire
land. He appealed to Mr.. Gladstone,
who has replied as follows: clam un.
able to perceive any justification for
your removal. The present arbitrary
and illegal proceedings of the govern
ment through their officers require a
Jealous examination. Their conduct is
affecting the liberties of the people Of
Ireland" Mr.. Byrne was one OF the
men that Tory gold could not buy and
consequently he had to be put out OF
the way. It has come to pretty pass
when a Government which rules over
q much -boasted civilized nation has to
resort to such desperate means in OF
der to dispose of an enemy OF tyranny
and an advocate Of justice.

O,BRIEN AND MANDEVlLLE REs0
LUTTE,

According to the telegraphie dis
patches the brutal hirelings of the Tory
Government are not succeeding to any
alarming extent in enforcing upon
Messrs. O'Brien and Vaudeville the
discipline to which ordinary prisoners
are subjected. To punish them for
their refusal to don the prison uniform
the prison officials have given orders
that their guests shall receive nothing
better than a bread and water diet. To
q man with a delicate constitution,
such as William O'Brien has, this food
is liable to deprive him of his remain
ing strength, and as we remarked last
week, the chances are ten to one that
the brave Irish agitator will never
cross the prison steps alive, and if he
does he will be physically incapable OF
performing much more hard work for
the Nationalist party.
On the other hand, Mr.. Vaudeville Is
said to rather enjoy his new way of
living, and after the manner of Mark
Tapley takes no credit to himself for
being happy under the circumstances.
Mr.. Vaudeville is the happy possessor
of a strong constitution and his few
months imprisonment on ''loW diet"
will not affect him very much.
The fortitude displayed by these two
gentleman under such trying circum-
stances speaks volumes for the earnest
ness which characteriZes the great
movement for Irish legislative inde-
pendence. In what other country out
side of Ireland can be found 80 many
men ready to suffer to a like extent,
that their native land may shake Oft
the tyrants' chains 1t will not be
long until other sympathizers with the
Irish movement will follow Messrs.
O'Brien and Vaudeville, but Ireland
has an inexhaustable supply of the ma
terial from which martyrs are made,
as the Tories will find out when this
right time comes.

ANOTHER GOOD MAN GONE.

Baron Wolverton. who died suddenly
at Brighton, Eng, last Sunday, was a
staunch friend of the Irish cause. He
donated G1OO, 900 toward the expense Of
Home Rule candidates in the Parlia-
mentary elections of 1886, and had ire
quently intimated since that he would
spend a like amount on the next gem
eral election. He was one of Mr..
Gladstone's closest friends. The Free
mans Journal of Dublin speaks in
high praise Of his services in behalf of
Ireland.

THE ELECTIONS.

The result Of Tuesdays elections has
been subject for much rejoicing in
the Democratic ranks throughout the
Union. More particularly is this SO in
the case of New York State. In this
State the Democrats were not certain
Of the result. The advent Of two or
three new parties into the political
arena left the result uncertain, but the
vote If Tuesday affords the most en-
.phatic proof that large majority in
New York State and city heartily en-
.liorse the principles set forth by the
Democratic party in their platform.
n one doubts now that Grover Cleve-
land will occupy the White House an
other term. The new parties that have
lately sprung into existence have not
made any inroads whatever into the
ranks Of the Democrats, but have
yuawed the vitals cut Of the Republi-
can party.
The labor vote has been surprise to
members Of that party all over the
United States. They expected that the
v te polled for their candidates WOULD
have been much larger. One does not
need to look far for the cause Of the
tremendous falling off in the labor vote.
Henry George. the recognized leader of
at least one wing Of the party. drove
away1thousands of voters who were IN
sympathy with the labor movement BY
his sneerlng attacks on the Catholic
Church. Matters pertaining to the
Church should never be dragged into an
election contest, and when q self con
stituted and acknoWled ged leader OF
h any political party announces that'all

MORGAN J. OBRIEN ELECTED.

e. great number of prominent Irish
men were elected in the different States
in which elections were held last Tues
day. We believe that the proportion Of
men Of Irish extraction who have
proved that they are capable and en-
titled to the support Of their fellow
citizens is greater than that of any
other nationality. In New York par
ticularly has this been the case. Nor
gan J. O. 'Brien, we'll known throughout
the length and breadth of the Union,
has been elected Judge of the Supreme
Court by a large majority. The Irish
World, in speaking of Mr.. O'Brien the
week previous to the election, said:
There is one man above all others
before the people of New York whom
the Irish World world like to see elect
ed Morgan j. OBJ. 4. candidate for
Judge of the Supreme Court. We have
known him long and well and watched
with satisfaction his steady rise in the
esteem Of his fellow citizens. AS the
student, the lawyer, aud the peoples
advocate he has never lost those char
acteristics af agreeableness, persever
ance and conscienIlo BUSINESS which have
been his DISTINGUISHING marks among
his associates, and, opposed to Mayor
Hewitt as we were, we could not help
crediting him with good sense snd coh-
siderable discernment when he, unsol'
|icited, chose Morgan j. O'Brien to I'LL
the responsible position Of Corporation
Counsel. That, is our mind, was one
Eof the wisest cts of the Hewitt Ad-

HOW CAPITALISTS PROTECT THEM
SELVES

1t is at least worthy of note that the
men who talk SO much about the evil
Of labor organizations and so on, are
capitalists Or men y,lo are marking
their fortunes by Questionable means.
The Knights of Labsr and the trades
and labor unions Of the various kinds
have been formed for the mutual pro-
lection Of their members. But capital
lists speak Of all such organizations as
the curse Of the times, because they
6nd that they stand in the way Of their
grasping propensities and of their fire.
quent oppression of the working
classes. The most curious part of the
whole affair is that the capitalists seem
to forget the combinations to which
they themselves are parties in so many
different shapes. They form great
railroad syndicates and rings which
virtually control nearly all the trans
portation lines in the United States,
and put up gigantic telegraph deals to
command all means Of ofimparting rapid
intelligence, commercial or otherwise,
thus enabling them to doctor the pro-
duce markets of the world at will.
While they condemn the innocent
banding together of workingmen for
purposes Of mutual protection, they
themselves enter into all manner Of
combines calculated to increase the
cost of the necessaries OF life. Some
times it is corner in wheat, and at
others combination in sugar, Rings
OF one kind and another are constantly
the order of the day with the capitalists
who so loudly dec]aim against the Or
ganizations Of labor for protective pul~
poses against their rapacity, but which,
thank God, they are now perfectly pow
erless to oppose. The labor element
has taken a leaf out of the CAPITALISTS
book, and experience teaches them the
truth of the adage that "union is

HEIP FOR IRELAND.

| Living retired life at GIL Third
street north, Minneapolis, is to be
found Mr.. Peter Curley. There is
nothing particularly astonishing about
the fact that MIR. Curley lives at the
place indicated above, but there is
something remarkable about the gem
tleman himself that everybody is not
aware of. Mr.. Curley came here from
the town OF Athlone many years ago,
and by pursuing strictly honorable and
economical methods he has amassed
more of this worlds goods than gener-
ally falls to the lot Of ordinary mortals.
He is now an old man, but his heart is
lust as warm towards the land of his
birth as it was in the springtime of his
youth. He is one Of those persons who
never let their left hand know OF
the charity of their right hand, and in
this commendable manner MI. Curley
has done much to swell the funds OF
the Irish National League. The other
day he was honored with the following
autograph letter from Rev. Charles
OReilly, treasurer of the Irish Ma
tional League of America, which
speaks for itself:

The Elections,

The result of the November elect
ions held in ten states and the territory
of Dakota last Tuesday, is given below.
In New York the Democratic State
ticket is elected by 5000 majority. and
Fellows is elected in New York city by
$1,000 majority over Nichols. The
George vote of $1,000 one year ago has
fallen to $4,000, while the Prohibition
vote is largely increased.
The Republicans have had narrow
escape from defeat in Iowa. Larrabee's
majority over all will not exceed 2 900.
Virginia is overwhelmingly Demo
cratic and the legislature will elect a
straight out Democrat to succeed Rid
dleberger in the United States Senate.
Massachusetts has elected the Repub-
.lican ticket by Is 600 to Is, 600 majority,
and like result is announced in Ohio
where Foraker's majority over Powell
for governor will exceed 10000. The
Democrats have made heavy gains in
Pennsylvania but not enough to carry
the state, although electing large part
OF the city ticket in Philadelphia.
MARYLAND gives Jackson Democrat
for Governor 1900 majority and the
legislature is also heavily Democratic.
a clean sweep was made by the Dem
ocracy in the city of Baltimore. New
Jersev has elected a Republican Legis.
lature and Rhode Island elects q Re-

The American Celt believes that it is
high time that Balfour was extermin-
ated from the face of Ireland. One bru-
tai tyrant in Dublin Castle requires
fifty thousand bayonets to support his
DEGREES. This hope emboldens Bloody
Balfour to the commission of lnnumer-
able crimes against the people of Ire.
land. 1t is anxiously hoped by the
friends of Ireland in America, that
truth will triumph over injustice across
the Atlantic. and that justice and p)-
litical liberty will walk hand in hand
throughout the old land. With this
hope beating in his noble breast, we
believe that braye William O'Brien will
live out his three months in Tullamore
jail. &
